Metering modes: Select a metering method. This determines how light values are calculated. Centre-weightedmeasures background light in the centre of the scene. Spot measures the light value at a specific location. Matrix averages the entire scene.

ISO: Select an ISO value. This controls camera light sensitivity. It is measured in film- camera equivalents. Low values are for stationary or brightly-lit objects. Higher values are for fast-moving or poorly-lit objects.

Location tag: Attach a GPS location tag to the photo.

To improve GPS signals, avoid shooting in locations where the signal may be obstructed, such as between buildings or in low-lying areas, or in poor weather conditions.

Your location may appear on your photos when you upload them to the Internet. To avoid this, deactivate the GPS tag setting.
